Will certainly post up some plans.<BR/><BR/>Ironically it isn't architecture school I hated, but rather working in architecture. I might have been slightly hasty but feel that I've made the right decision, esp. since I can always come back.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your compliments and encouragement!Fayjhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14347897660744096255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22451665.post-88697343723218154922009-01-05T19:56:00.000+02:002009-01-05T19:56:00.000+02:00This post showed up in a Google alert for me on architecture. I must say that I do find your buildings to be very interesting and active. There are many elements in your work that emphasize your sensitivity to the terrain. I would certainly like to see the plan of some of these, it is much more important than the exteriors.<BR/><BR/>One thing that school doesn't teach you, and they actively lobby against it, is that focusing on exteriors disregards the reason for a building, what is happening INSIDE. Exterior aesthetics are important, but only to the person that views a building as an object, rather than a building, which is constructed to offer protection from the OUTSIDE. <BR/><BR/>I too hated architecture school with an unabated passion, but after getting out, the job is nothing like college. It seems that the only people that try to teach architecture students are the people that were massive failures at performing the work. In other words, they are useless to the world other than removing the desire from students to do good work. They place emphasis on theory, rather than real world concepts. Drawings and models are nice, but the built environment is the end result, not a bunch of pretty stuff in the studio.<BR/><BR/>That said, architecture is honestly the most fulfilling profession that you could possibly find if you actually like studying the built environment. Hopefully, the professors have not killed that for you because your exterior designs are very engaging.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Two Dogshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07825674914008378242noreply@blogger.com
